    Let me try to say in intuitive terms what I think is really going on here.

    The problem is as old as those about #OtherMinds, #Intersubjectivity, or #Commensurability and it involves a whole slew of other old problems — #RealityVsAppearance or #RealityVsRepresentation, not to mention #TheOneAndTheMany. One way to sum up the question might be “conditions on the possibility of a #MutuallyObjectiveWorld ”.

    I'm not sure when it was I first noticed the relationship between #manifolds and #semiotics but I distinctly recall the passage in Serge Lang's Differential and Riemannian Manifolds (1995) which brought the triadic character of tangent vectors into high relief.

    Excerpts from Lang's DARM

    Applications of #Manifolds are illustrated by the following excerpts from Doolin & Martin's Introduction to #DifferentialGeometry for Engineers.

    Manifolds came up in connection with #Ontology and #Semiotics due to the issues of #Perspectivity, #OntologicalRelativity, and #Interoperability among multiple ontologies. As I see it, those are the very sorts of problems manifolds were invented to handle.
